Artist Miguel Barcelo unveils $23 million ceiling at UN

GENEVA – Spanish artist Miquel Barcelo unveiled his lavish, $23 million ceiling painting at the United Nations on Tuesday, a project that has evoked controversy over its hefty price tag.

In a ceremony with Spain's King Juan Carlos and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Barcelo gave the world its first glimpse of the 16,000-square-foot (1,500-square-meter) elliptical dome full of bright colors and torn aluminum. The most striking element may be the hundreds of small icicle-shaped pieces that dangle down from the ceiling.
